A:AnswerHey there Atul! The power requirement for the Solo 5 TV sound system is 20 V DC, 1.8 A. This means that it is specific to the region it is being used in. We hope this helps! Have a terrific day! Ashley - Bose Support
A:AnswerHello CK, thank you for your question. The Solo 5 is engineered to be an upgraded replacement for the speakers that are native to your TV. It can receive Bluetooth signals for streaming audio from mobile devices. If you are using it to receive a signal from a computer it is likely that the Bluetooth transmission is designed for peripheral devices at close range. I recommend contacting the computer manufacturer to see if there are settings available that might improve things. Have a great day! Best Regards, Greg - Bose Support
A:AnswerHello Mac, thank you for your question. The Solo 5 is engineered as an upgraded replacement for the speakers that are native to your TV. You can only attach one source at a time, using one of the three connection types. While you could physically connect a receiver to the speaker, it would likely not perform as well as expected and we do not recommend it. Have a great day! Best Regards, Greg - Bose Support
A:AnswerHello! Thank you for your question. The Bose Solo 5 TV system will connect to any television that features an optical or HDMI input. It is designed to be a stand-alone system and is unable to pair with additional speakers. Have a terrific day!
A:AnswerHello Sally! Thanks for your question. The Solo 5 TV sound system is designed to be a stand-alone system. It uses proprietary technology to bring out audio details that cannot be reproduced by most built-in TV speakers and is not compatible with additional speakers. We hope you have a wonderful day! Ashley - Bose Support
A:AnswerHello Kitten, thanks for your question. The Solo 5 can accept these inputs: Digital Coaxial, Digital Optical, 3.5 mm audio cable. If your TV has any of those outputs then they should be compatible. Have a great day! Best Regards, Greg - Bose Support
A:AnswerHi Pooh, thank you for the question. This would not be compatible to setup with your Bose Cinemate II. Please contact us if you have any other questions.

A:AnswerThank you for your interest in the Solo 5 TV Soundbar, applepiealamode. Yes, the Solo 5 will replace the audio output of your TV speakers. When you connect the Solo 5 to your TV, please disable your TV speakers in your television's menu for the best possible sound. This soundbar provides incredibly clear and balanced audio for shows and movies. I have one in my living room and I've really been enjoying it. We hope this helps. Have a great day!

A:AnswerHello LOster. Thank you for your interest in the Solo 5 TV soundbar. The system will connect to a TV via HDMI or optical cable. Any sources that are connected to the TV will play audio through the Solo 5 TV soundbar. We hope this answer helps. Have a wonderful day! Ashley - Bose Support
A:AnswerIt will play any sound that your TV would normally play. So if your TV's internal speakers play Pandora then this should also, assuming you have it connected correctly and set our TV sound options correctly. Just make sure your TV has the correct audio outputs to match with the audio inputs of this soundbar and you should be fine.
A:AnswerGoogle Bose Solo 5 manual. The manual has two pages of instructions and includes the buttons to push. The manual is downloadable in PDF version.
